hii so i‘m way to invested in everyone‘s baldurs gate plays. can we see your tavs? I would love to see them haha😭
YESSSSSS i will happily take any excuse to talk about my tavs. 🥰 i'm sorry this took so long. i wanted to have their Lore™ a little more set in stone before answering this, but then i proceeded to make uhhhh 2 more tavs and a durge. 🤡
Tumblr media
i am listing my characters in the order i created them. they're all good/neutral aligned because being mean in video games makes me break out in hives. aaaaand this is going under a read more because it got really fucking long. 🥴
Tumblr media
marqwyn stoneheart
race: human
class: eldritch knight fighter
background: soldier
romance: gale
my first tav who i adore. ❤️ i stole her name from the very first character i created for a now abandoned dnd campaign (though she's nothing like og marqwyn). she's a former flaming fist who left their service due to the corruption she witnessed there. after leaving the city she became an independent soldier for hire—but she's a terrible mercenary because she's a bleeding heart who will help people because they need it, regardless of whether they can pay her or not.
she has dragged the party into many an unnecessary brawl because her charisma is literally in the negatives. we love a girl incapable of talking herself out of Situations. she also used to have two brown eyes before deciding to get herself volo'd during a brief moment of desperation-fuelled insanity.
her backstory has changed a lot since i first made her, mostly because i didn't really have anything in mind when i started playing. 😬 i also had no fucking clue what i was doing when i first started and it certainly shows (tons of missed content, didn't take enough long rests, completely missed lae'zel for the first ~30 hours of gameplay, have done quests in an extremely questionable order, etc.).
i romanced gale with her because the wizard had me by the jugular the second he opened his mouth, and buff wife who hits things with her big sword and her squishy wizard husband who casts counterspell is something that can be so personal. that being said, i do want to rework her character and do another playthrough with her, probably romancing wyll, because her playthrough is a mess.
i will now dip into the alternate canon that lives in my brain in which my next three tavs are allowed to coexist, so just stay with me here and trust in the vision ajgjsdgf
Tumblr media
meadow moonwillow
race: mephistopheles tiefling
class: storm sorcerer, bard of the college of lore
background: entertainer
romance: karlach (or enya in the canon that exists in my head)
i made her specifically for my karlach romance run, because best girl deserves a little sunshine to match her own. meadow was born to play gigs in dive bars, but was cursed with a natural talent for magic. 😔 she'll use it because it's useful in a fight, i guess, but she'd much rather insult people to death. if there is shit to be disturbed, she will disturb it.
her and gale are best friends, because i think having some friendly spell caster competition with his bestie who (begrudgingly) lets him teach her wizard spells would be good for his mental health. her and wyll butt heads a bit at first, mostly because meadow's way of trying to comfort people is through humor, and her attempts to make him feel better about his new devil form come off as insensitive (inspired by the way i accidentally insulted wyll at the tiefling party in my meadow playthrough by joking that i was jealous of his horns. king i swear it was meant as a compliment!! 😭). eventually they become really close, which is certainly a necessity when you're both going on a vacation to hell with no set end date.
also my choice of name for her definitely has nothing to do with the fact that i am in the middle of watching the sopranos. definitely not.
Tumblr media
landric sparrowsong, "the wrath-bringer"
race: human
class: oath of vengeance paladin, tempest domain cleric of ilmater
background: sage
romance: gale
his backstory is probably the one i've thought about in the most detail, mostly because he's a walking tragedy and i live for that shit. 🧍🏻‍♀️
he was once a school teacher and wasn't much of a fighter at all before his little village near baldur's gate was razed to the ground and his wife and (or so he thinks 👀) daughter were killed, at which point he took up his oath of vengeance. his favourite pastimes now include self-sacrifice and violently murdering evildoers, hence the "wrath-bringer" epithet.
he has been alone—mostly by choice, because he can't lose any more loved ones if there is no one left alive that he loves—for over a decade by the time he's infected, but the forced proximity means the companions very quickly get under his skin. he's very protective of meadow especially (when they're both in the party at the same time in the universe that exists in my head) because she reminds him of his daughter.
he is god's favourite sacrificial lamb, and is consistently the first to go down in a fight (inspired by me, constantly getting him killed by taking far too long to figure out how to play a support class). naturally i paired him with gale because i think the idea of a guy finally opening his heart to the love of another after over a decade of self-imposed solitude out of fear of being hurt again, only for gale to decide to take on a suicide mission just as they're finally realizing their feelings for one another, is soooooo good and tragic. ☺️
he has a soft spot for children, but being around them makes him sad and withdrawn (for obvious reasons), something that the companions notice pretty quickly once they get to the grove and see his cold exterior totally melt around the kids there. he carries a journal which he adds to often, either little blurbs or sketches of people he meets in his travels, ever observing from afar as an outsider.
he was actually a war cleric of mystra when i first multiclassed him because the idea of this man finding solace in his goddes during the worst years of his life only for that same goddess to tell the first person he's truly loved in years that he needs to kill himself is sooooo. anyway. but i decided to change it because war domain just wasn't doing it for me and also have you seen ilmater's whole deal?
Tumblr media
also if he bears a close resemblance to my favourite unromanceable assassin's creed npc, that's just a coincidence (lying).
Tumblr media
enya sparrowsong
race: human
class: beast master ranger/circle of the land druid
background: urchin
romance: lae'zel (or meadow in the canon that exists in my head)
enya is landric's very alive daughter. i made her in the character creator with no intention of actually doing a playthrough as her, which is a lie i tell myself every time i open the character creator. 😔
ideally she would not even be filling the role of tav at all, but that's obviously not an option for an actual playthrough. she spent her childhood hunting and gathering in the wilds and later pickpocketing her way through the darkened alleys of baldur's gate to survive. in the version of her backstory that lives in my head, she eventually caught the attention of jaheira (by trying to rob her), who then took enya under her wing. the harpers became a family to her, and she is with them in the shadow lands when we meet them at last light in act two. also depending on my mood on any given day, enya and meadow are either bitter exes or couple of the year.
she is generally very abrasive with most people she doesn't know well (her and lae'zel are very perfect for each other), but has a soft spot for animals and orphans. she likes her solitude and it takes a lot of effort to earn her trust (there's a reason she's survived alone as long as she has) but once you do, she's ride-or-die.
she has a raven companion and her preferred wild shape is a wolf, but i've also had a lot of fun using her wolf wild shape and a wolf companion for twice the mauling in combat (and twice the torment for shadowheart—thank you sam for pointing out that she would fucking hate this 😭). i also like to think that she's been helping shadowheart get over her fear of wolves.
her relationship with her dad is deliciously complicated!!! but that's for another post.
Tumblr media
idunn
race: high elf
class: necromancy wizard/gloom stalker ranger
background: haunted one
romance: astarion
i haven't played as her much yet, and she's my first durge so i don't really know a ton about that whole background. but her brain is currently scrambled egg and she doesn't remember her past so i figure it's fine if i don't know anything about it either.🧍🏻‍♀️
she's trying so very hard not to kill people, and making up for the lack of murder by being incredibly rude to everyone she meets [astarion approves]. i named her idunn because i like the name but also in large part because i think associating the dark urge with the norse goddess of rejuvenation and vitality is really funny.
Tumblr media
aelius lucilius
race: drow half-elf
class: light domain cleric of selune
background: acolyte
romance: shadowheart
he's my newest tav and the one i've played the least, so i'm still working out his backstory. i honestly just really wanted to romance shadowheart as a selunite, which is working out great so far because the shar is already out of the bag and now she loudly and openly hates his fucking guts. 🤪

— WHICH OF THE SEVEN DEADLY SINS IS YOUR OC?
TAGGED BY the darlings @chuckhansen, @marivenah and @leviiackrman to take this loveliest uquiz for a few dears! ty ty so much!
TAGGING: @risingsh0t, @griffin-wood, @queennymeria, @aartyom, @dihardys, @jackiesarch, @florbelles, @arklay, @confidentandgood, @adelaidedrubman, @aceghosts, @swordcoasts, @roofgeese, @pearlcscent, @bloodofvalyria, @belorage, @yennas, @shellibisshe, @multiverse-of-themind, @unholymilf, @lavinet, @roberthouses and you!
Tumblr media
PRIDE
pride: "dangerously corrupt selfishness, the putting of one's own desires, urges, wants, and whims before the welfare of other people." basically, you're selfish. but hey, at least you love yourself!! that's a good thing. you know what you want and when you want it. you're very determined and tend to block out negativity in your life. good!! your ambitions might block your view of everyone else in your life, but deep down you know they're there and you care for them very deeply. you're very energized and invoke a lot of emotions in other people. your voice has a very big impact, so don't forget to use it (for the right reasons) :)
Tumblr media
GREED
greed: "an artificial, rapacious desire and pursuit of material possessions." you're greedy (obviously). you have a very competitive nature and always strive to be the best. you also really like money but hey, who doesn't. your dream is to be rich and successful, and you'll do anything to get it. you have few friends, but the ones you do have are basically family to you. don't forget to slow down and cherish the people around you ;)
Tumblr media
ENVY
envy: "a sad or resentful covetousness towards the traits or possessions of someone else." another sin of desire, you constantly feel upstaged by everyone else. you want everything you know you can't have, and tend to under-appreciate the things you do have. you're easily distracted and might be self-loathing. but that's okay because you're ambitious and determined. you can do anything you put your mind to, and are capable of a lot more than you think you are.
Tumblr media
SLOTH
sloth: "a peculiar jumble of notions, dating from antiquity and including mental, spiritual, pathological, and physical states. an absence of interest or habitual disinclination to exertion." basically, you're careless. you have a lack of feeling for the world and the people in it. but actually, the most carelessness you have is for yourself. you tend to be self-loathing, when in reality you deserve the most. make a list of all the things you love about yourself and don't forget to appreciate all that you are and all that you do ;)
Tumblr media
WRATH
wrath: "uncontrolled feelings of anger, rage, and even hatred. feelings of wrath can manifest in different ways, including impatience, hateful misanthropy, revenge, and self-destructive behavior." basically you have anger issues. you tend to seek vengeance and hold grudges for a loooooongggggg time. but that's only because you're looking out for yourself and the people you care about. you're not afraid of a fight and are very confrontational. you're strong-willed and thick-skinned. don't forget to show ur soft side every once in a while :)
Tumblr media
LUST
lust: "intense longing or desire." you're just tryna get into everyone's pants now aren't you. honestly, good for you. you feel lonely a lot and happiest when giving or receiving love. you constantly wonder whether the people in your life truly need you or not. I'm sure you're a very friendly person with a big heart <3 and lots of love to give!! so give it!!
Tumblr media
WRATH
wrath: "uncontrolled feelings of anger, rage, and even hatred. feelings of wrath can manifest in different ways, including impatience, hateful misanthropy, revenge, and self-destructive behavior." basically you have anger issues. you tend to seek vengeance and hold grudges for a loooooongggggg time. but that's only because you're looking out for yourself and the people you care about. you're not afraid of a fight and are very confrontational. you're strong-willed and thick-skinned. don't forget to show ur soft side every once in a while :)

Ice and/or storm, please?
hello! here i come to answer my dragon asks. given the nature of the game i'm gonna take these from dragonsong.
ice: share a snippet where a character is taking a risk
No. She had orders. What kind of knight would she be if she disobeyed? The oath she’d sworn obliged her to follow her king’s orders. She had no choice. She stepped forward and raised the sword. And hesitated once more. Her oath had also included swearing to protect the innocent and those who couldn’t protect themselves. What was more innocent than a baby dragon? A baby dragon who probably had no idea what was happening. Enya probably didn’t know she wasn’t supposed to be here. It wasn’t her fault. Her parent had presumably brought her, and Isi had brought her here to the citadel. If anything, Enya’s presence was Isi’s fault. She cast the sword aside. It rang on the stone floor, but the sound seemed very far away all of a sudden. Blood roared in her ears. She swallowed and lifted her chin. “No.” One word, but it cut the silence like a blade.
storm: share a snippet where a character is angry
“Hey, kid—Robin,” SB called after him. “It was a joke.” The sound of Robin’s cane halted as he stopped, but he didn’t turn around. “I can’t seem to go more than two days without some magical disaster. I don’t find that particularly funny.” “I shouldn’t have laughed,” said Sierra. It might have been an abrupt change of mind, but Isi knew it was sincere. “I’m sorry, too,” said SB. Isi added, “It wasn’t your fault.” “And yet it keeps happening.” Robin continued walking, his shoulders stiff.
thanks for the ask!
dragon-themed writing asks are here

The sewage system beneath the Capital had always been an unsettling place. The walls seemingly absorbing the generations of lost children that had been tossed away here, alongside dirt and criminals. Pain and torture thick in the moist air. Her reign had emptied this place. Those hunted slowly daring to come back to the sunlight. And those who hunted chased away.
But on this day there would be a soft crying carried to the Queen and her Lord’s ears, as they took a walk at the roots of the Tree. Their attention heightened by the little newborn bundle that she had born just recently. This one sounded similar. Small and vulnerable. Hungry. And so incredibly fragile. The tiniest echo coming from the dark pits beneath the golden steel bars that closed off the entry to the catacombs beneath the palace.
Ariadne dared to feel a swell of happiness on that day. Enough so, that she eased her schedule to allow for a leisurely walk with Enok and their newborn. Little Xeha could use the peace and quiet, she told herself, when really it was for her own benefit. Aella and Enya were causing some fantastic noise and mischief for the stoic red wolf of Leyndell and their tutor.
The sound of an echoed cry caused said happiness to falter. Steps slowing, the Queen exchanged a look to her husband. Both held similar fears. There were no buildings nearby that should have contained a baby's cry, much less when the sound seemed to carry from beneath them...
There was a dread in the pit of her stomach. Though she had taken steps to free those who were different from shackles which bound them below the city in a miserable life, opinions were not easily swayed. "Hold her. Please." she urged, tone indicative that argument was not an option.
Ariadne slipped her hand into a pocket producing a seal of Perfect Order. Her own sacred seal, and the only. With it she cast an incantation which opened the barred catacombs and descended into the depths with quickened steps.
The cries acted as her guide. There was little light below the city, the sewerage system a dim and filthy place where a baby's cry didn't at all belong. Her heart ached at the discovery. "Oh, little one. Oh, darling." she cooed, gathering the abandoned newborn into her arms and casting an incantation to warm and heal them. They were absolutely freezing, and she imagined they hadn't been fed. There were telltale signs of no clothing and a still-fresh cord stump that had yet to begin drying. They had quite literally been born and left to die down here.
Tumblr media
"I've got you," Ariadne whispered into the dark, unshouldering her shawl to wrap the little one up safe and warm. "You're safe now." Perhaps that was when she did the unthinkable. Her robes parted just-so and she guided them, the baby boy, to feed. Her steps carried her carefully from the catacombs back into the light of day.
Here, the horns and the little hanging tail were obvious. Enok would be met with the sight of Ariadne breastfeeding an 'omen' in need. Though rather than a soft or pleading look, she emerged with a stern expression. "Guards! Gather everyone who has an incantation into the catacombs." Then, much more quietly and with softened eyes she regarded her husband. "He almost died right beneath our feet. This is a failure and I intend to get to the bottom of it..." Gaze lowering, she adjusted the newborn in her arms. "He will remain with us. Never again will he know such neglect or despair."

‘ do you dance? ’ (inquisitor enya to Cassandra!)
THE QUESTION STARTLES THE SEEKER. She has remained in the vestibule of the Winter Palace rather like a stone in a ravine—partygoers strolled past her in streams aside from the occasional fool who attempted to strike up a conversation with her. It's not difficult to tell that she is uncomfortable: arms are crossed at her chest like a barrier between herself and the rest of the world.
Cassandra did not like Halamshiral. She did not like Orlais.
"I... do," She parses her words carefully in the watchful gaze of the Inquisitor. Her eyes narrow, suspicion naturally taking over. "At times. Why do you ask such a question?"

‘ you can’t get rid of me that easy. ’ / visenya
❝ i never wish to, sweet girl. ❞ but the little princess is clearly not sweet — if anything, rhea cannot help but see the ferocity she has only ever seen in her estranged husband; back when he was young, and angry, and was content in blaming her for the marriage when she herself had wanted it much less than he did. must be an old valyrian trait, such fury, rhea cannot help from thinking - or ... if the rumours were true ...
but it would be foolish to say that aloud. rhea has heard tales of what comes to those who dare brand princess rhaenyra's children as bastards, and the lady of runestone is not invested enough in the legitimacy of the heir to risk her tongue. she has a land to rule, and subjects to look after — and should this kingdom come to war for the right heir to sit on the throne, she will have to prepare her men for that, as well. little else matters.
though this girl ...
Tumblr media
❝ i cannot give you the lessons you want. ❞ rhea says diplomatically, her voice is not one to dismiss, but merely to declare. this, what she says, is fact. there is no way around it. ❝ if you're in need of a bow and an arrow, lessons in stealth while you hunt your game, or the duty of running a keep, i am at your service. aside from that, you run more luck with bothering your shield-at-arms for swords and spikes, young princess. warmongering has always been more of my former husband's expertise than mine. ❞

Happy STS! You need a housesitter while you're away. Which one of your OCs DONT you choose for the job and why?
Thanks for your funny question and sorry for the very late reply, your STS ask got buried in my inbox. :-/
The real question is, which oc DO I choose because I wouldn't trust most of my characters for house-sitting. Enya might accidentally set my flat on fire, Meara would flood the whole flat while taking a bath. Talib would bring so much dirt on the carpets and stamp the parquet floor with his hooves. Maybe my safest option would be Saoirse, but her feral cat Aibhilin might bring some chaos and tear down the couch. Well they all live in the wild, so I can't blame them for not knowing how to take care of a flat.

@heireign​ said: “  why did you think i wouldn’t notice you?  ” / little visenya maybe ? 
Tumblr media
she’s  up  before  sun  kisses  horizon,  bare  feet  slipping  over  stone  floors    ⎯    a  wispy  thing,  built  of  fine  bones  and  milky  flesh  stretched  too  tight  over  them.  barely  five,  already  restless,  lavender  eyes  blinking  through  veil  of  flaxen  hair  that  familiar  hands  coax  into  manageable  plaits  residing  against  head.  it  was  wishful  thinking  that  one  so  tiny  could  slip  away  unseen,  unfurl  from  bedsheets  where  two  same  arms,  which  had  always  ferried  her  about,  would  not  notice  the  sudden  bleak  emptiness  of  yet  another  child.  long  gone  are  days  where  visenya’s  lungs  felt  paper  thin,  breathing  comes  easier,  she  wants  to  run  .  .  .  to  use  the  great  looming  table  just  several  feet  ahead  as  a  place  to  hide  from  lessons  under.  a  mockery  of  timid  smile  finds  lips  for  she  is  anything  but,  the  intricate  cogs  in  brain  whirring  and  clicking  rapidly.  
“      vaoreznuni  muña.      ”
valyrian  comes  natural,  slips  from  tongue  with  ease,  and  lashes  flutter    ⎯    resembling  one  far  more  innocent  than  all  her  scheming  brilliance  tells.  fingers  find  onyx  fabric  at  waist,  the  shape  of  it  made  to  fit  in  her  fist  as  tugging  on  it  had  often  been  desired  way  of  gaining  attention.  even  as  a  babe  she  wasn’t  much  of  a  crier,  too  quiet,  as  if  born  with  an  inbred  knowledge  that  her  time  here  was  more  temporary  than  fixed.  sighs,  rocking  back  ‘  n  ‘  forth,  gaze  finding  an  open  window  once  more.
“      can  i  not  see  them?      ”
dragonstone  was  abuzz  with  fresh  faces,  and  with  them?  dragons.  she  coveted  each  sighting,  cooed  over  the  variants  of  colors  in  scales.  how  wiry  caraxes  was,  or  the  gold  of  syrax’s  maw.

For the weapon asks, pistol!
pistol: which character has your favourite introduction?
in Dragonsong, Fintan is assumed to be a rock before he is revealed to be a dragon. Enya has a cuter introduction, but she's just cuter in general
weaponry asks here!
